I am conducting social and technological experiments in the future evolution of the world's languages.
What forms of recognition by the dominant culture generate pride for people to keep their languages strong? What's the role of technology? How can outsiders learn these languages when 95% of them are unwritten and have no teaching materials? In short, how do we create a world that sustains its linguistic diversity? |
